Interests
I am interested in practical algorithms with a geometric flavor, but
my most recent work is on automatic differentiation.
I have also worked on raster graphics, font generation, and more recently
document image analysis. My work often touches on other fields including
numerical analysis and data compression.
I have created a graphics language called
MetaPost. MetaPost is based on
Knuth's
METAFONT, but is intended for figures in technical documents.

computing sciences research at bell labs.
